This was our third stay. We love coming to Cumberland and the riding Fool is perfect for us. My only concern is that the Hostel survived a recent fire. We were very sad to hear that the building had been damaged .

The facilities are excellent, clean and well maintained considering it's a hostel-style place. The rooms are clean and comfortable. We stayed in a double room and the way that the check-in is managed is great. The bike washing facilities were great and the location was brilliant. Cumberland is a great spot.
Slightly small room but this is a really minor issue as the price reflects this, along with the style of accommodation.
There were no bike locking facilities - considering this is a biking hostel, this seemed odd. There is a place to store your bike in the lobby of the accommodation, just by the front door. We really didn't feel comfortable doing this with our bikes as they would be easily accessible so we stored them in the car.

6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
The property had a great location and you can walk everywhere in town. The kitchen was big and clean. Several bathrooms all clean.
The bed was the hardest bed I have ever slept on. My arms kept falling asleep. It was. The bed was very uncomfortable.
